Chapter 989: To borrow

"Wait a minute, the coalition forces still need more training, let Xiaofeng pass a letter to Chen Tai, let's fight two more guerrilla games and see the situation."
Luo Zhaoyang nodded in satisfaction when he saw him seeking stability so much. He felt that Si Chi Chi did have his own way, and he was no ordinary person.
"You have said so as the coach, what can we lieutenants say? Naturally it is up to you."
When Si Chi Chi heard Luo Zhaoyang say this, he waved his hand quickly, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of such an old general.
"The general's words are damaging me. Who would dare to call the coach in front of General Luo?"
Luo Zhaoyang smiled, did not say anything, and walked away with his own people. After Si Chichi arranged related matters, he sent a letter to Jingcheng.
"Brother, are you going to start?"
Seeing that the army was pulling out again, Si Chi was a little worried. Although Si Chichi said that she was just playing with Chen Tai's army every time she came to ask questions, it has been so long now. The higher she came, she knew in her heart that this moment was not far away.
"Not yet. This time is the same as the previous few times, but it's too soon. I have already sent a letter to Jingcheng. If Wen Qihua has everything in place, I will start."
Si Aihao nodded, and felt a little more settled. On the one hand, she hoped that the war would start soon, so that it could end earlier, so that she could see Wen Qihua. But on the one hand, I hope that the war will be later, so that the coalition forces will be fully prepared, so that they will suffer fewer casualties.
"By the way, it is estimated that the war will start in this month. It shouldn't be delayed for too long. You don't want to stay here any longer. Will you be sent back tomorrow?"
Si Chichi looked at his sister with some worry. Although she is strong, she is also a daughter's family. She has a soft heart. How can she withstand such a war?
"Brother...I want to stay. It is very useful for me to stay. I can help the medical officer take care of the wounded, and I can also count things in the war for you, right?"
Si Chi Chi knew that Si An's staying here was very useful, but he had promised Wen Qihua that she would never involve her in any danger.
"But I promised Wen Qihua that he would never put you in any danger. He is already very scared in the capital. If I can't guarantee your safety, he won't let me swallow me up?"
Si Hao sighed, his elder brother didn't know if it was his own, so why listened to Wen Qihua's.
"Oh, you are a leader of the rebel army, but you still want to listen to him. I'm in the back, and I don't go to the front to charge. There is no danger! Just let me follow you."
Si Chichi glanced at her helplessly. He knew the "sex" of his sister best. Now if she doesn't agree to her, if she thinks of a way to stay, she doesn't know it, even more so. It's better to put her next to her, which can be considered at ease.
"Okay, okay, but I have to tell Wen Qihua the news, lest he settle accounts with me in the future."
Min Sheng looked at the Wen Mansion in front of him and sighed. He hurriedly hurriedly finally arrived, and it was worthwhile for him to exhaust two horses on the road.
"Min Sheng arrived so soon, didn't he just tell him yesterday?"
He nodded secretly, he didn't know why Min Sheng arrived so fast, it seemed that he didn't start the journey from the day he received the letter.
"I am exhausted."
Wen Qihua handed a cup of tea to Min Sheng, and looked at him strangely. How could he come so quickly? It seemed that he had been prepared.
"Why did you come so soon? Didn't I just send someone to give you the news yesterday?"
"Huh? Are you looking for me?"
Min Sheng looked at Wen Qihua and didn't seem to know that he had sent a letter to himself. He was in a hurry along the way. It is estimated that the person sending the letter did not catch up.
"It's okay, I'm here, why are you looking for me?"
Wen Qihua shook his head and told Min Sheng what happened in the palace yesterday. After all, Yin Yan is Min Sheng's person, and he always wants him to analyze whether this person is reliable.
"Yin Yan, don't worry, I can guarantee that she is reliable. She is not an ordinary woman in Peach Blossom Valley. Her father was framed by her boss, and the whole family was copied and cut. She was the only one left because she did not enter the genealogy. I came down and was saved by my father. I grew up with me. I came here for her."
Wen Qihua was a little surprised. He originally thought that Yin Yan was just an ordinary subordinate of Peach Blossom Valley, and he never thought of having such a relationship.
"What do you mean by saying you came this time because of her?"
Min Sheng took out the brocade box in his arms and handed it to Wen Qihua, motioning him to open it and take a look. After Wen Qihua opened it, he found that it was just a jade pendant, but the appearance was very good.
"Isn't Yin Yan going to have her birthday soon? We arranged for her to be 17 years old. This girl is only 16 years old this year. This is a gift my father prepared for her before his death. I came to bring her this time. of."
Wen Qihua nodded. It seems that the old Gu Zhu is indeed different from Yin Yan, and Min Sheng also believes in Yin Yan very much.
"Since her identity is so special, why did she choose her to enter the palace?"
Hearing this, Min Sheng sighed. At first, he had never thought about letting Yin Yan enter the palace, but he couldn't hold back that she had to come by herself, and he had no choice but to force her to death.
"At the time, she requested it herself. She hadn't done anything in the valley and felt a little guilty. She knew that I was looking for such a person in the valley, so she asked for it herself."
Now that Min Sheng said so, Wen Qihua naturally believed in Yin Yan's loyalty. After all, she had lived in Peach Blossom Valley for so many years.
"I received Si Chichi's letter today. He is going to do it."
Min Sheng looked at Wen Qihua in surprise, he was ready after the coalition had been integrated for more than half a month?
"So fast, is there really no problem with coalition operations?"
Wen Qihua nodded. Originally, he guessed that it would not take too much time. They knew who Luo Zhaoyang was. Such a celebrity should not take much effort, not to mention Si Chi Chi himself is extremely good. Talented people, so half a month should be enough.
"There should be no problems. Some running-in can only take place slowly on the battlefield, and you can't be too anxious, but he said there is no problem, that is, there is no problem."
"What about the capital? Are you sure you can control it now?"
Wen Qihua smiled. Emperor Wu is still sitting alive in the palace. Who can guarantee that he has all the capital under his control?
"It's almost the end now. Your Majesty has not been in court for a long time. The government is entrusted to me and the fifth prince. The fifth prince is pedantic, you know, so it can be considered a small achievement, but I can't guarantee it completely. After all, your majesty is the real one. Master, as long as he stays in the capital for a day, no one dares to say he has complete control."
Min Sheng nodded. Seeing what Wen Qihua meant, Jingcheng was almost ready. In this case, Si Chi Chi was going to war.
"Okay, make up your mind, I'm just asking."
After Wen Qihua sent the news to the border gate, he told Emperor Wu that he had been feeling the wind and cold for a while and could not go to the court temporarily.
Not long after Emperor Wu took over the administration, news came from the border that Chen Tai had defeated him, and 200,000 soldiers and horses had lost 50,000.
"Asshole!"
Emperor Wu threw the military report in his hand on the ground fiercely. No one of the court officials dared to speak, and all knelt on the ground and dared not make any noise.
"What did Chen Tai do to eat, such a big loss, has the previous battle been fought in vain?"
Chen Tai's father, General Xiaoqi Chen An, knelt on the ground and couldn't help shaking. He didn't know why he suffered such a big defeat.
Now that Emperor Wu is angry, it is equivalent to erasing all the credits he had done before. In this way, I am afraid that the Chen family is in danger.
"Chen An, look at your good son, but in such a battle, 50,000 soldiers were lost, which is many times more than in previous victories and killing the enemy. What do you say!"
Chen An knelt on the ground, not knowing how to explain it. In fact, no one can guarantee that he will remain undefeated in a war. Even Luo Zhaoyang experienced the defeat of the Changshiqiao and almost annihilated the entire army, but he won’t win afterwards. Did you kill the enemy?
Your Majesty must condemn Chen Tai and the Chen family for such a win or loss. It is indeed unfair. Although Chen An dare not speak, he is already very upset in his heart.
"Tell Chen Tai, if he loses another game, let him immediately give me a soldier talisman and get back to be sinned!"
Emperor Wu hurriedly left the court hall. Chen An, who was still held by the courtiers a few days ago, is now kneeling on the ground, watching all the courtiers leave one by one. Everyone looks at this former hero like a street mouse. Father, no one dared to give him a hand.
Chen An stood up slowly by himself and gave a wry smile. The world is so cold, but there is nothing he can't see through.
"Dong Chen, is it chilly?"
Chen An raised his head and looked at Master Wen who was now in the courtroom because Wen Qihua did not go to court these few days.
He looked at himself with scorching eyes, as if he had seen through all his thoughts, chilled? Naturally chilling? When the son's meritorious service was outstanding, His Majesty was worried that his meritorious deeds would shake the master. Although he had rewarded a lot of gold and silver, he gradually reduced the real power of himself and his family.
"Where is Master Wen, how dare you be a courtier?"
Master Wen knew that Chen An had always been cautious, and naturally he did not dare to say anything in public places like the court hall.
"Does Chen Gong have some time to spare? How about going to the palace?"
Chen An nodded. He didn't want to go back to the house now, so I might as well go to Wen's house to discuss with Wen Qihua, Wen's master.
"Thank you, Master Wen."
Wen Qihua leisurely drank tea at home, read a book, where there was the slightest sign of illness, Anyi told him what had happened in the hall today, he smiled but did not speak.
He still knew something about Emperor Wu's "sex", so he was sick and recuperated. Otherwise, it was not only Chen An who was scolded today, but also himself, an official who has been in politics for a long time.
"Father brought him back?"
Darkly nodded, the two of them were already in the sedan chair, on their way to Wen's Mansion.
After Chen An got off the sedan chair, he followed Master Wen into the study, and the two sat on one side, each with their own concerns.

"Master Wen, what should I do with this matter?"
Chen An finally lost his breath and spoke first. Master Wen smiled and ordered Wen Qihua to come over.
"I'm old, and many things are not comprehensive enough for young people. Let Qihua figure out a way for you."
Chen An nodded happily. He knew Wen Qihua's wisdom, not to mention that he had always won the trust of His Majesty. If he could give himself an idea, it would naturally be better.
"It's just that Master Wen is embarrassed now and still has to come to bother me, which is really embarrassing."
Master Wen waved his hand, his embarrassment was false anyway, and he was more leisurely than him now.
Wen Qihua walked to Master Wen's study, knocked on the door, and walked in. He first met with Master Wen and then bowed to Chen An.
"This can make it impossible. Master Wen is the prime minister. How can the junior officials dare to receive Master Wen's courtesy?"
Wen Qihua shook his head and helped Chen An sit down. "My prime minister is only to rely on my father. Now that I am not in the court, General Chen is also an elder, so it is natural that I should pay my uncle and nephew."
After sitting down, Chen An glanced at Wen Qihua, and felt that his expression was self-assured, and he didn't seem to be uncomfortable.
"Master Wen looks very full of energy, and it seems that he will be able to go up soon."
"My nephew can heal so quickly, it depends on the hospital's proper use of "medicine". Now my nephew also has a good "medicine" here, which can relieve my uncle's troubles. I just don't know if my uncle is willing to take it?"
Chen An didn't expect Wen Qihua to think of a way so quickly. He was very happy and couldn't help nodding.
"Master Wen gets better so quickly, it seems that the "medicine" is indeed effective. I have indeed gone now, and I have asked Master Wen to make it clear."
Wen Qihua took out a letter from her arms and gave it to Chen An, then stopped talking, and sat with her father quietly drinking tea.
After receiving the letter, Chen An recognized that it was his son's handwriting at a glance. He was a little bit "confused", opened the letter and read it, and immediately sweated.
Wen Qihua looked at Chen An's panic and thought of what Chen Tai had said to him.
"Although my father is brave and good at fighting, he is indeed a stupid and loyal person. If he is asked to submit, I am afraid it will be even harder."
"But when I see your look as usual, I seem to have made a decision long ago?"
"Yes, my father is indeed stupid and loyal, but my mother died young, and I was the only son. I am my father's biggest weakness!"
After Chen An read the letter, his hands were trembling. Several times he wanted to see if it was his son's handwriting again, but couldn't muster the courage.
"Uncle what do you think of my "medicine"?"
Chen An opened his mouth, but didn't make a sound. Wen Qihua knew that the impact of this incident was really great for officials like Chen An, so he didn't ask any more, waiting for him to slow down.
"Master Wen..."
Chen An finally reacted. Looking at Wen Qihua, he didn't know what to say. Chen Taixin had already said very clearly, but he still didn't give up.
"Why did Chen Tai take this step, was it you..."
Wen Qihua knew what Chen An wanted to ask. A stupid and loyal person like Chen An naturally felt that his son should be as loyal and patriotic as he was. If he couldn't, he felt that others were "forced" by others.
"Uncle, I know what you want to say. I didn't "force" Chen Tai. In fact, I believe Chen Tai must have told you the reason in the letter, because the people.
As far as your nephew knows, your uncle is also a commoner, you have outstanding military exploits during the emperor's time, and you are in harmony with the lord of Xianmude, and you eventually become a husband and wife. You should be more aware of the suffering of the people. Chen Tai came to me on his own initiative. I don’t ask your uncle to give up your life for us like Chen Tai did, because whether you do it or not, for Chen Tai’s sake, I will embrace the Chen family’s "sex" "Fate, but I hope you can open your eyes and see clearly, is this still the prosperous age you saw before? "
Chen An was speechless by Wen Qihua's remarks. He is not a fool. How could he not know what the court is like now?
But after all, your majesty is your majesty, how can you rebel because of these things? Wouldn't it be a loss of morality for the courtier?
Chen An shook his head. The impact on him was too great. He didn't dare to make such a decision. He couldn't apologize to Emperor Xian.
"Master Wen, let me go home first."
Master Wen originally wanted to say something to persuade Chen An, but Wen Qihua stopped him and sent him out of the house in person.
"Master Wen doesn't need to deliver it, just come here."
Wen Qihua nodded and turned and left. Chen An stood at the door and looked at Wen Qihua's back. After all, he couldn't help but stop him.
"Master Wen..."
Wen Qihua turned around to look at Chen An, Chen An hesitated for a while, and finally spoke. "My Chen Tai has trouble, you bother a lot."
Wen Qihua smiled, did not speak, just nodded firmly, and left. Min Sheng watched indifferently and sighed.
"Such a foolish and loyal person is the most annoyed. You say he is loyal, he is indeed loyal, but what is the meaning of his loyalty? Is it possible that he can be buried in the tomb together with his family and his majesty? ?"
Wen Qihua shook his head. He understood what Chen An meant. Chen An was different from his father. He was truly blessed by the emperor.
At the beginning, he was in love with Princess Maud, and the old prince disliked him from being a commoner, so he naturally refused. It was the first emperor who came forward to achieve such a good relationship, and then Chen Tai was born.
"Such a veteran can't change his attitude overnight, but Chen Tai himself knows that he belongs to his father, and his father will eventually turn around and help him."
Min Sheng nodded, he thought so too. Although Chen An looks so stubborn now, his heart would have been shaken long ago, otherwise he would not turn around and ask Wen Qihua to take care of Chen Tai.
"Just like your father, although his mouth is stiff, he can give up everything for his own children."
Wen Qihua smiled and did not speak, thinking that Min Sheng's metaphor was specious, but rather funny.
Si Ai's role in the frontier became more and more important. When it came to helping the medical officer take care of the wounded, even for such major events as the enemy's situation, Si Chichi gradually became dependent on her.
Luo Zhaoyang didn't believe in such witchcraft in the first place, but after several times when Sicha was very accurate, he became more and more relieved.
"Now Chen Tai has no real power, so we have no way to get more information, but the little girl of the Si family has a lot of magical powers, and no one missed it."
The people around Luo Zhaoyang also praised Si Hao humbly. She has done a lot now, and it is indeed very accurate.
"How about, brother, I said that I will be of great help if I stay."
Si Chichi smiled and patted her forehead. This girl gave her three points of color and opened the dye shop.
"Yes, your help is really great, but the soldiers are also very hard. If the order is passed on, we will take a good rest today and let the fire head army add two more meat dishes to make a good supplement for the soldiers."
Emperor Wu looked at the army newspapers piled up in front of him, his face was dark and could not be darker anymore. The courtiers below were already accustomed to the low pressure, and they were dull and silent.
"Chen Tai is no longer the coach, why is he still losing, can't he still be able to reach a tie with the "chaotic" people before the border? Why is he now losing again!"
How could these officials who are far away in the capital know this kind of thing, two of them are like deaf and dumb.
"Wen Aiqing has any ideas?"
Master Wen heard Emperor Wu telling him to stand up quickly and shook his head. It was really hard to ask a civil servant about this kind of border war.
"Your Majesty, the minister does not know, but the minister guessed that some of the well-known rebels in the coalition army should have played a role. The minister heard that Luo Zhaoyang has also joined the rebel army. I think this is the reason."
Luo Zhaoyang is indeed a general that no one dares to look down upon, but Chen Tai has been able to win several battles under him before, so this excuse is no longer sufficient.
"It seems that Chen Tailai still has to preside over the war at the border, but Chen Tai really disappointed me a while ago."
When Chen An heard that Emperor Wu asked Chen Tailai to preside over the frontier warfare, his heart was tense. When Emperor Wu had cut Chen Tai's position as the head coach a few days ago, he was still fortunate in secret. At least that would not have much impact. Now let him go to host again.
"Your Majesty, Chen Tai is still young after all. The minister thinks it is more appropriate to let other more experienced generals go."
Emperor Wu looked at Chen An suspiciously. Generally, the chance of such a coach is robbed of his head. Why does this Chen An seem reluctant?
Emperor Wu thought of the words he had said to Chen An a few days ago. Chen An's courage was probably lingering, so he refused.
"Don't Chen Aiqing believe in her son? Chen Tai is the only one who has fought against the group of "chaotic" people in Chaozhong and Border Pass, and I can only rest assured of him."
Chen An saw that Emperor Wu had made up his mind and couldn't turn around anymore, and he sighed, knowing that such a day really couldn't escape.
"Yes, Your Majesty Shengming."
After Emperor Wu gave his decree, Wen Qihua waited for Chen An at home. Chen An was loving and caring. Chen Tai said in his letter so decisively that he was naturally worried.
"General Chen An is here."
Wen Qihua nodded, and went to the door to greet Chen An. Chen An felt like a frosted eggplant. He felt very gloomy.
"Why uncle is standing at the door, please come in quickly."
Chen An glanced at Wen Qihua and then at the huge Wen Mansion, and finally stomped in.
"I accepted what Chen Tai said, but I only asked Master Wen to protect him. I only have one child with his mother."
Wen Qihua knew what Chen An was worried about and nodded. Even if Chen An didn't say anything, he would guarantee Chen Tai's safety.
